Great American Rail-Trail

such a beautiful trail!

October, 2024 by sherryschie

We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!

Bitterroot Trail

Bike path next to Highway 93

September, 2024 by keizer96

Really badly maintained and noisy trail. You're better off riding the actual shoulders of 93, far less hilly and definitly no weird bumpy patches every 2 feet.

Bitterroot Trail

Some views. Mostly Hwy noise.

September, 2024 by jimbeezer55

Too close to a chaotic 4 lane high volume Hwy. Too noisy. Not actually near the Bitterroot River. Go to the Rio Grande Trail in Colorado to see how a river path should be constructed.

Great American Rail-Trail

West bound from Ellensburg. August 2024

August, 2024 by tastesbadtobears

We ( recumbent trike & e-bike) headed West from the Kiwanis park. Turned around after 9km as the surface was really tough on the trike. There’s 2 good wheel tracks for bikes, but the trike had to ride partially in the coarse trail ballast. Scenic area with farm views and a huge windmill farm in the distance.

Milwaukee Trail

It has its moments of beauty. Well traveled and well marked. It's a fun trail.

Bitterroot Trail

Just south of Lolo, you can ride the frontage road to the west, old 93, and it's incredibly quiet, calm and little traffic for several miles . A good reprieve from the traffic noise. Beautiful ride.

Bitterroot Trail

noisy

September, 2023 by kaisasw

We looked forward to riding this trail for the views. It was very disappointing, the noise from riding next to the highway was too much for us. The trail is also quite bumpy. We started in Lolo and planned to go to Victor but turned around after 10 miles.

Great American Rail-Trail

Great Allegheny Trail southeast of Pittsburgh?

April, 2023 by eshawger

Surprised to see this amazing trail that has great bed and breakfasts along it is not noted as part of the Great American Rail Trail. It sure would help demonstrate more GART completion if it was.

Great American Rail-Trail

A nice ride. The hub is a good place to start.

Riverfront Trail (MT)

nice river views

July, 2022 by alice2013nc

We walked the north side of the river and it was clean and nice. We are cyclists and considered riding but lots of stops/starts and little mileage. Highly recommend to walk, grab a coffee, and enjoy the view. Cycling if you can figure out connecting trails.
